Hadoop is an ops and usability disaster. Yet companies large and small are adopting it because it does "something people want".
RDF and ontologies are just more data. Without computation, that data is not useful, and all the things one "could do" with it will not come to pass without a credible computational platform that people actually want to use.
So IMHO I would like to see that community focus less on standards and ontologies and RDF-as-panacea, and and more on the infrastructure needed to put the data to work.
